After much encouragement, I’ve decided to blog again. Micro-blogging has been great fun and an invaluable learning experience for me. Those who have been so kind as to follow me on the various sites, know that I love to learn & share. I intend to post on a variety of topics that interest me & hope that my readers will find them also to be of interest and occasionally useful. I’ve met some wonderful people in the social media realm and made some awesome acquaintances from all around the world. I’m grateful for your time & attention and hope you’ll enjoy visiting me here also. I’ll be looking forward to your comments & feedback with great anticipation.

    “Worldly similarity, if it were possible, is not Christian equality. Moreover, to bring about worldly similarity perfectly is an impossibility. Well-intentioned worldliness actually admits this itself. It rejoices when it succeeds in making temporal conditions the same for more and more people, but it acknowledges itself that its struggle is a pious wish, th […]

    “My life is absolutely meaningless. When I consider the different periods into which it falls, it seems like the word Schnur in the dictionary, which means in the first place a string, in the second, a daughter-in-law. The only thing lacking is that the word Schnur should mean in the third place a camel, in [...] […]

    “Now if the learner is to acquire the Truth, the Teacher must bring it to him; and not only so, but he must also give him the condition necessary for understanding it. For if the learner were in his own person the condition for understanding the Truth, he need only recall it.” ——————————————————– ~Source: Philosophical Fragments (1844) Author: [...] […]

    “The secular view always clings tightly to the difference between man and man and naturally does not have any understanding of the one thing needful (for to have it is spirituality), and thus has no understanding of the reductionism and narrowness involved in having lost oneself, not by being volatilized in the infinite, but by [...] […]

The hope of eternity is concealed [...] […]

    “When the religious speaker, in explaining that a man can do nothing of himself, sets something wholly particular in relation to this principle, he gives the auditor occasion to secure a profound insight into his own inmost heart, helps him to penetrate the delusions and illusions, so as to lay aside at least for a [...] […]

    “Now in case a man were able to maintain himself upon the pinnacle of the instant of choice, in case he could cease to be a man, in case he were in his inmost nature only an airy thought, in case personality meant nothing more than to be a kobold…The choice itself is decisive for [...] […]

    “There is indeed a big dispute going on in the world about what should be called the highest. But whatever it is called now, whatever variations there are, it is unbelievable how much prolixity is involved in taking hold of it. Christianity, however, immediately teaches a person the shortest way to find the highest: Shut [...] […]
